It's a gloomy day here in Pamkittyville, weather wise anyway! I don't mind though, it's a perfect day to stay home and do something. Ok, I admit it, I'm TRAPPED home as my car is in the shop. Drat. But on the bright side, I have some new magazines to read. And plenty of vacuuming. Color is really making me happy lately. These two magazines covers have me all excited about spring. I just want to make stuff when I see them.

Even the January Nordstrom catalog is telling me to get busy.

Here's my sunshine today. I love those mini daffodils, what about you? I could carry this pot around the house with me so where ever I am they're cheering me on.

Hi Miss Pam!!! Just thought I'd pop in to say hello, I haven't been blogging much in a while but plan to get back to it! I have the Fresh Home magazine sitting on my coffee table and I just love the colors on the cover too! XOXO

Well, Jack is missing yet another day of mega expensive preschool because I also have a car in the shop. I am on load 128 of laundry (with 134 to go I am sure) and I really need to get in the sewing room and attempt to clean that freaking mess up. But it's scary.

Yep, I grabbed that Nordstrom catalog cover for my inspiration board this month. I am throwing out years worth of magazines this week and emptying my sewing room , getting ready for the floor to be refinished and a new paint job. Tiffany blue I'm thinking.

In going thru my old magazines to tear out what I have to keep, I discovered I'd already started tearing up that new Country Living! Yikes! BUT, there's the most GORGEOUS doormat ever in that issue and you'd better believe I'll be ordering it!

Oh Pam! Thank you for the daffodils - we won't be seeing any here for months!still shoveling out from under 11" of snow that fell last week and rumor has it that there is more on the way ---- BOOOO HISSSSS I prefer Gloomy!

CLEANING! PURGING! i'm getting started early on my spring cleaning and trying to get rid of things i don't *love*. the only problem is, i keep talking myself into keeping things!! i already signed up for the salvation army guy to pick up 6 bags of STUFF later on this week, so i HAVE to come up with six bags of stuff!! off to go through the kitchen cupboards and get rid of any pans/utensils i haven't used this year!
